The angular distribution for the N 14 ( d , α)C 12 ground-state reaction was obtained at seven deuteron energies between 1.5 and 3.0 MeV, and the excitation function for this reaction at the laboratory angle of 30° was determined in the same energy range of deuteron. The angular distribution varies remarkably with deuteron energy, suggesting that the reaction proceeds mainly via compound nucleus formation. The energy dependence of the 30°-differential cross section and the total cross section indicate the presence of overlapping resonances at the excitation energy of about 22.6 MeV in the compound nucleus, O 16 .
